I
am thankful for ......
The partner who hogs the covers every night because he/she is
not out with
someone else.
The teenager who is not doing dishes but is watching tv, because
that means
he/she is at home and not on the streets.
For the taxes that i pay, because it means that i am employed.
For the mess to clean after a party, because it means that i
have been
surrounded by friends.
For the clothes that fit a little too snug, because it means
i
have enough to eat.
For my shadow that watches me work, because it means i am in
the sunshine.
For a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, and
gutters that
need fixing, because it means i have a home.
For all the complaining i hear about the government, because
it
means that
we have freedom of speech.
For the parking spot i find at the farend of the parking lot,
because it
means i am capable of walking and that i have been blessed with
transportation.
For my huge heating bill, because it means i am warm.
For the lady behind me in church that sings off key, because
it
means that i can hear.
For the pile of laundry and ironing, because it means i have
clothes to wear.
For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day, because
it means i
have been capable of working hard.
For the alarm that goes of in the early morning hours, because
it means that i am alive.
And finally.......
For too much e-mail, because it means i have friends who are
thinking of
me.
(send this to someone you care about, and when you think your
life is so bad, read this again.)
